How We Work

Sustainability at Strathmore University

Sustainability at Strathmore University is embedded across teaching, research, campus operations, and service to society. Guided by the theme “Caring for People and Planet” and aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the University integrates social inclusion, environmental stewardship, and good governance across its activities.
This commitment is reflected in initiatives that expand access to education, renewable energy adoption, sustainability-focused research, community engagement, and ethical leadership development.
Through these actions, Strathmore continues to advance measurable contributions to SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 13 (Climate Action), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).

How the Strathmore University Foundation Bridges the Gap

SUF mobilizes ethical and impact-driven capital, translating the University’s work into ESG- and SDG-aligned investment and philanthropic opportunities for corporates, foundations, and mission-aligned partners. Through strengthened impact measurement, transparent reporting, and responsible donor stewardship, the Foundation connects partners to initiatives where their support can accelerate measurable social, environmental, and governance outcomes.
SUF’s strategy is to expand ESG-aligned partnerships, strengthen impact reporting, deepen stakeholder engagement, and mobilize sustainable financing that advances Strathmore’s mission while delivering accountable, results-based impact.
